Description of the route
Take route 13 opposite the hotel in Vétan-Dessus, a hamlet of the municipality of Saint Pierre, and go up the short slope, which in a few minutes leads onto the meadows. Now veer left, walking alongside a brook, until you come to the track from Alpe Tsampioù, which takes you to a junction below Alpe Thoules. Here, continue on the left branch and go up towards Alpe Thoules, and then the ruins of Alpe Grandes Arpilles. Now take the dirt road again, until you come to the paved road for Alpe Crottes, which you take on the right, until you cross the trail on the right (13B) that leads to Lad des Grenouilles.
